Questions & Answers about هر چقدر هم که شیشهی مذاب داغ باشد، شیشهگر داخل لوله میدمد.
How does the structure هر چقدر هم که (har cheqadr ham ke) work here?
This is a common structure for expressing concession. هر چقدر means "however much," and adding هم که followed by the subjunctive verb (here, باشد) translates to "no matter how" or "even if it is." The subjunctive is required because the exact degree of heat is treated as a varying or open condition.
Why use میدمد instead of a more common verb for "blowing"?
میدمد comes from the verb دمیدن (damidan). While everyday conversational Farsi typically uses فوت کردن (fut kardan) for blowing (like blowing out a candle), دمیدن is used for continuous, specialized, or slightly more formal contexts, such as blowing into a musical instrument or glassblowing.
How does the suffix ـگر (-gar) function in the word شیشهگر?
The suffix ـگر (-gar) attaches to nouns to indicate a profession or a person who works with that object. Here, شیشه (glass) plus ـگر creates "glassworker" or "glassblower." You've seen this same suffix in B1 words like کارگر (kâr-gar, worker) and بازیگر (bâzi-gar, actor).
Does داخل (dâkhel) require an ezafe here to connect to لوله (lule)?
Yes. When used as a preposition meaning "inside of," it requires an ezafe to link it to the following noun, forming داخلِ لوله (dâkhel-e lule). Even though the ezafe is not written out in the Persian script, it must be pronounced.
